Chapter 467: The sky-high asking price

However, it was said that Gao Shang and his entourage, along the way, could be described as a meal and camping, and hurried all the way from the east, traveling more than 100,000 kilometers, and the time was only more than 20 days. The hardships involved are unimaginable. Even if you are a cultivator, it is very tiring to travel like this.

After arriving in the west of the Fertile Earth Continent, they did not immediately come to the Ocean Group, but first observed the confrontation between the Xuanzhen Sect and the Xiaoyao Sect, and then observed the development of many Western countries, and finally came to the country of Qixia and hired a local guide in the country of Qixia.

Finally, take the train and come to Changshan Town, I don't want to see the scene of the hydrogen balloon falling just after coming here.

The hydrogen balloon is still quite impressive, 50 meters high, which is taller than the surrounding hills. In particular, this 'behemoth' fluttered down from the sky, and then finally stopped landing at a height of just over half a meter above the ground, and was suspended in mid-air.

Two figures jumped out of the hanging basket below, talking and laughing, walking towards the building next to them.

"It's a hot air balloon!" said the guide, his tone filled with a faint disapproval: "This is the most useless thing that the Ocean Group has studied." It is said that the two bridesmaids who presided over the study were in charge. Dayang Group also did not keep any secrets, anyone can go and see it. ”

Although Gao Gao Shang is smart, after listening to the guide's words, there don't seem to be many people around the 'hot air balloon', and even the defense force is very sparse, which seems to further verify that this hot air balloon is useless - the Ocean Group itself does not pay attention to it!

Unfortunately, sometimes people tend to overlook a very important issue - what is placed in the present is not necessarily unimportant. Hydrogen, hydrogen balloons, high-altitude capture aura, etc., any one made public is enough to cause the world to shake. It's a pity that these things are just put in the present, and everyone doesn't find them.

Gundam Shang observed for a moment before moving on. He did not directly visit Zhang Hao or Dayang Group, but first inquired about the location of the Li family and visited him.

When Li Yousheng heard that the visitor had brought Li Yuanyuan's letter, he sat up with a brush, and his eyes lit up a little. It's been two years, and there has been no news for two whole years, so it's false to say that I'm not worried.

Li Yousheng almost took three steps and made two steps...... No, it floated out with a whoosh.

Outside the gate, Gao Gao Shang looked at Li Yousheng's hurried expression and smiled proudly: What I want is your performance!

When Li Yousheng came to the door, he stopped, tidied up his clothes, and slowly, showing the brightest smile, walked towards Gao Shang. "I don't know what to call you?"

"Gundam Shang. Gao Shang smiled faintly, his smile looked kind, but there was an indescribable arrogance, "Yuanyuan still wants to call me uncle." ”

In other words, we are peers. And since I am Li Yuanyuan's uncle, do you want me to take care of her? Give me some benefits! Gao Shang's speech was very incisive, but a simple sentence contained too much content.

When Li Yousheng heard this, the smile on his face suddenly became a lot more enthusiastic: "I see. Inside please!"

Then he instructed the people around him to hurry up and prepare the dinner. At this time, it was already dusk, and it was a good time for dinner.

When Gao Shang entered the living room and sat down, he immediately took out Li Yuanyuan's family letter from the storage ring: "Brother Li, this is Yuanyuan's letter." ”

In just a few words, he has already begun to call himself a brother, but Li Yousheng is happy to accept it.

Excitedly took the letter with both hands, opened it and read it, and Li Yousheng showed a kind smile on his face.

Li Yuanyuan explained in a concise tone the gains along the way, as well as the little things she was happy about, and finally said that although she missed her parents, she also wanted to be an excellent daughter, and after the infancy, she would return to the scenery! and told her parents that she should not worry, and also told her younger brothers to work hard and the outside world is very big.

Li Yousheng read the letter twice repeatedly and slowly, for a full moment.

Gao Daishang didn't care either, and slowly tasted tea, but he was also looking at Li Yousheng - Li Yousheng's performance at this time was completely seen by Gao Daishang, and he already had a general framework for dealing with it in his heart.

When Li Yousheng finally finished reading the letter and apologized embarrassedly, Gao didn't say anything, but talked about the exchange with Li Yuanyuan after meeting, of course, it was interesting to say.

In the end, Gao Shang said: "My master Tang Chenying and I are old acquaintances. Yuanyuan is the most serious girl I have ever met. ”

Serious practice...... It doesn't mean that the practice is fast. But Gao Shang said it beautifully. made Li Yousheng excited again, and the distance between the two became closer.

By the time the dinner party began, the two of them had already called each other Brother Li and Brother Xian - poor and excited Li Yousheng didn't want to think about it, he was just in the early stage of the Yuan Infant cultivation, and Gao Gao Shang was already at the peak of the Yuan Baby, and he was just one chance away from reaching the stage of transforming into a god, why should people call you brothers? !

Speaking of which, Li Yousheng was able to become a Yuan Infant because of the opportunity that Dayang Group obtained from the Xuanzhen Sect, and Li Yousheng was one of the first people to achieve Yuan Infant.

When the dinner was over, Gao Gao Shang finally said his true purpose - the steel battleship technology of the Ocean Group had spread to the East, and our Majesty was very curious and wanted to buy a few warships. I wonder if Brother Li can help introduce Zhang Hao?

Obviously, he has a letter of recommendation from Li Yuanyuan in his hand, but Gao Shang still wants Li Yousheng to help introduce him!

Li Yuanyuan is a junior after all, and she only has a dry letter of recommendation, which is really useless. If Li Yousheng can personally introduce ...... Gee......

As for Li Yousheng, as soon as he heard such a 'small request,' he immediately said: "No problem! It's not too late, let's go and visit." ”

"Wouldn't it be inappropriate?" Gao Shan secretly rejoiced, but on the surface he began to be hypocritical.

"No, no, if I visit tomorrow, Zhang Hao doesn't know where to go. Recently, there have been a lot of things going on in Dayang Group, and the sooner we visit, the better. ”

So Li Yousheng asked his subordinates to inform Zhang Hao as soon as possible, and he waited for a while, and set off with Gao Gaoshang.

When I met Zhang Hao, it was already 20 o'clock in the evening, and Zhang Hao had just come out of the secret laboratory. Recently, Huang Mingshan and others have made great progress in researching the immortal qi, and they are only one step away from final formation.

However, Li Yousheng personally sent someone to inform him that a distinguished guest had come to visit, and Zhang Hao had to leave the research base.

In the living room, Gao Gao Shang met Zhang Hao, and met the young president of Dayang Group, who had already held up a piece of the sky. This year, Zhang Hao is 20 years old.

After meeting, Gao Gao Shang moved Li Yuanyuan out again, and said that before Li Yuanyuan left, he wrote a letter of introduction to himself.

Zhang Hao read the letter, and in Juanxiu's font, there seemed to be a faint homesickness. Li Yuanyuan said very implicitly, but it was not bad to focus on Gundam.

Since there is the introduction of the Li family's father and daughter, Zhang Hao is of course also very enthusiastic, but the relationship is a relationship, and business is business.

When Gundam Shang proposed to buy a steel battleship, Zhang Hao denied it.

"Why?!" Gundam was stunned.

Zhang Hao pointed to the nautical chart on the wall, which was developed from the elephant of the earth, but the west coast of the Fertile Earth Continent and the west coast of the Soil Continent have been improved a lot. There are more routes on it.

This chart is not used within the Ocean Group, but is a low-precision map specially displayed to the outside world. But it's enough to show up.

Zhang Hao pointed to the nautical chart and said: "At present, our warships are mainly fuel-based. And the maximum range of a fuel-fueled warship, including the return distance, is 20,000 kilometers.

From us to the east, the sea route is tortuous, and it is estimated that it will be no less than 110,000 kilometers! ”

Gundam Shang smiled confidently, "I've inquired about this too." I heard that Dayang Group also has a spirit stone driven technology?"

Zhang Hao nodded: "There is indeed this kind of technology, but because we have been developing fuel technology, the spirit stone drive technology is not mature, the power is weak, and the spirit stone consumption is high." Its energy consumption is 500 times that of fuel!

Five hundred times, do you know what the concept is?

This means that with spirit stones as power, the ocean trade is not profitable at all, and even loses money. ”

In fact, the spirit stone drive technology of the Dayang Group is, of course, mature, and now the Dayang Group's own warships have spirit stone-driven steam turbines as backup and auxiliary power. But it's good to know this thing, so that you can ask for a price!

The cost of spirit stones is indeed high, but it is only more than two hundred times, not as exaggerated as more than five hundred times. The reason why Zhang Hao said this is that he is not prepared to provide excellent technology.

Gundam Shang pondered for a long time, and these news were obviously unheard by the outside world. After a long while, he said, "If you build a steel battleship powered by spirit stones, how long will it take?"

Zhang Hao did not answer directly: "It will take at least a month and a half for us to build an Iron Duke-class battleship now." And the battleship completely powered by spirit stones, we have only tested it on the Zhiyuan, and the Zhiyuan has already sunk. It was never tried again. And the displacement of the Zhiyuan is only 4,000 tons.

If we want to produce 10,000-ton, spirit-stone-powered warships now, we need a certain amount of technical research. I think it will be at least two months or more!"

Gundam Shang frowned: "Then can you buy your current finished battleship? and then refit it?"

Zhang Hao thought for a while and said, "In principle, it is possible. But in this case, the price will be high. You'll need to buy our finished ships first, and then we'll refit them.

If it is completely converted to Lingshi power, many internal structures of the battleship will need to be changed. Moreover, the steam turbine driven by the spirit stone is very expensive, and the output power is equivalent to a steam turbine in the infancy, and the price is as high as 3 million high-grade spirit stones.

Our current best spirit stone drive steam turbine has the ability to output up to 2.4 yuan infancy. But the price is ...... 10,000,000 top-grade spirit stones!"

Gundam Shang gasped. These offers from the Ocean Group are simply astronomical!
